So I decided to be stupid and wired in too many things (by accident) to my stereo's 12 volt source. I thought I was wiring it (a switch for gauges) to the cig lighter...but was wrong. Anyway, I blew something as soon as I turned the switch off after trying it out b/c I realized I had wired into the wrong wire. Now the stereo, power locks, dome lights and map lights don't work. The clock's display pulsates (weird). I'm guessing I blew a fuse or a fusible link....which one is it. I tried the stereo one (20A) in the driverside kick panel. Any other ideas?

 

Check the fusible links by the battery.

 

You might of toasted the theft warning relay... all those things go through it... I dont remember what all fuses are associated with that, i'll have to check my fsm next time I go out to my car (its a several minute walk from my ship )

 

cool...exactly the info I was looking for. I just started a new job and have zero time to work on my car...so I figured instead of spending hours going through the system pulling every fuse, relay, and link....I'd ask one of you since I'm sure it's happened to someone.

 

if thats not it check out fuses 6 and 15 (lights are on 15, radio on 6, not sure about the power locks)


Edit: The only other point I can find common to them (besides power to the fuse box), is the accessory relay which I believe is inside not in the engine bay relay box
